Is music haram in Islam?
Question:
Is music haram in Islam? What is rule of listening and singing song and drawing pictures using musical instrument?
Answer:
Music is an issue that has been hotly debated by scholars of the past and the present. While many of them have been generally inclined to condemn all forms of music—with the singular exception of al-dduff (tambourine) in weddings--, quite a few of them have taken a more positive approach of considering only music containing sensual, pagan, or unethical themes or subliminal messages as being categorically forbidden.

Specific prayers or Dua's that will help a couple get pregnant
Question:
Are there any specific prayers or Dua's that will help a couple get pregnant?
Answer:
Although there are no prescribed prayers that we can readily find in the sources for this specific purpose, you can freely make use of any general prayers or supplications from the Qur’an, the Sunnah or from the salaf al-ssalih (pious forbears): So turn to Allah through them, invoke His favour or beseech His mercy. Allah says, ‘Call upon Me, I will answer your prayer” So never despair of Allah’s mercy but pray unceasingly with hope while placing all your trust in Him; perchance He may respond to your prayer.

Husbands request for wifes permission before travelling alone
Question:
If a man is travelling by himself, is he required to seek the permission of his wife before leaving?
Answer:
Islam enjoins husbands to deal with their spouses not whimsically or erratically but in full conformity with standards of kindness, decency and fairness. This has been best summed up in the Quranic imperative: “And deal with them on terms of al-ma’ruf” (Q. 4:19).
